The Dacian Wars is a topic over overlooked due to a severe lack of sources, which is in stark contrast to the magnitude and importance of the conflict. However, with this video, we hope to create a series detailing everything we know about the campaigns until this point, based on the works of numerous researchers and archeologists. So sit back and enjoy our lively animated and epic series as it covers the forgotten wars in their entirety, with no details left out!

Each video will include the details about the cultural and social lifestyle of the Dacians, a deeply fascinating people who were later Romanized to extinction by the Romans.
